IF there was one word to describe Miz Metro it’s: UNLIMITED. Hailing from New York City, raised in Manhattan Miz Metro grew up playing street ball & scatting in street corner ciphers. She acquired the name from her homemade door-knocker earrings made from NYC Metro cards, which have become her staple style item, a testament to her unique and quirky personality.

With her  well crafted lyrics and unconventional soulful pop sound Miz Metro has created a sound and style all her own. Often compared to Amy Winehouse, Fiona Apple, Lily Allen and Gwen Stefani, she describes her main influences to be “A cross between Etta James, Judy Garland & De La Soul.” She has performed on bills/festivals with Drake, The Cool Kids, Pharaoh Monch, Moby, Emily King, Ladybug Mecca of Digable Planets, Jean Grae, Yarah Bravo, Louis Logic, Mickey Factz, and Charles Hamilton to name a few.

Accepted as an official showcasing artist at the 2009 CMJ & 2010 SXSW festivals, Miz Metro has received serious exposure for her debut album UNLIMITED released through her own Miz Metro Media label. She has been a featured artist on Myspace.com’s Music homepage, received over 600,000 plays on IMEEM’s featured playlist for her track on the  HIP HOP HOWL Mixtape that she co-hosted & produced, and has over 20,000 ringtone downloads from myxer.com.

While finishing up her final semester of college she is working on an EP with platinum producer Keith Shocklee from BOMB SQUAD of Public Enemy and is writing for major artists with platinum producer Red Spyda.  On her way to being one of the hottest young songwriters around she has already been hired to write exclusive songs for ABC family and has multiple songs licensed to MTV & various other TV networks.

Miz Metro is a modern music media artist, one that embodies the power today’s artist can have in the creation and distribution of their image- as an art form in itself.  With VJ experience conducting exclusive on camera interviews with Fab 5 Freddy, GZA of WuTang, Pharaoh Monch, Spankrock, Lady Sovereign and others, she is  launching “The Miz Metro Show: UNLIMITED”  expanding her presence & fan base by creating exclusive mobile content covering artists that don’t fit in a box.  Miz Metro is creating a platform for original thinking artists to be heard, she is the voice of the underground and a conductor of magic on stage, in the studio and behind the camera.  Being an innovative leader with an unwavering work ethic, has planted her firmly on the front lines of the digital media music revolution. Miz Metro is the future, and there is no turning back.
